In order to show the most suitable ventilation conditions for the prevention of spontaneous combustion of small ship engine room, We have performed CFD simulation and analyzed flow and temperature fields. The flow patterns indicated differently according to the number and location of supply and exhaust opening. The case of locating the exhaust openings at the center of left and right side ceiling to the longitudinal symmetric line were more effective to eliminate the generated heat. When the number of supply and exhaust openings were increased, the case of increasing the number of exhaust opening showed more suitable ventilation conditions. The most suitable ventilation conditions in order to prevent the spontaneous combustion of small ship engine room was predicted that the supply opening located at the center of front and after side ceiling to across symmetric line, and the exhaust opening located at the center of both side walls.

Naval equipments are installed and used for naval vessel with different environmental conditions comparing to the commercial vessel, for example, high engine power per ship displacement size, severe vibration and shock due to high running speed and explosion from naval gun's bombardment and underwater weapons. Therefore, those equipments must be installed on shipboard with small spaces, high ambient temperature around engine room and which are required be fabricated with high resistances of vibration, shock and heat resources. But in case of commercial vessel, the performances of their recent equipments naval have been improved continuously due to the technology development of domestic shipbuilding and shipboard equipment industries, together with the related fundamental industries i.e, metal, steel and electronic industries, to an international level since 1970. With these results, it became possible to unify the specifications of shipboard equipments for the commercial and military vessels(Dual-Use). In this study, vibration and shock test standards for the commercial and military vessels will be compared and reviewed technically.

The magnetic compass as a principal navigational instrument has been long used to fix ship's position and to determine ship's course. Particularly, in the small fishing vessels the studies on performance and rational usages for magnetic compass are requried to improve the safety and productivity of the small fishing vessels even though gyro compass is developed nowadays. For this purpose, the author examined the present condition of the magnetic compasses which are intalled on 219 small fishing vessels, and carried out a series of performance survey for each compass of them and also found the measured values of deviation by installation position of compass, respectively. The results obtained are summarized as follows: 1. The small fishing vessels less than 4 tons among the 219 small fishing vessels from 1 to 10 tons investigated were 50% of them. Only 1% of them were equipped with the deviation correctors, and 14 fishing vessels used the magnetic compasses which are more than 20 years old. 2. According to the compass installation position, the measured values of the deviation of the compass installed on the top bridge and the compass bed in bridge were ascertained to be the smallest, and those values of the compass installed on the bridge deck above engine room were larger and irregular. 3. The concomitant angle of the magnetic compasses installed on the experimented 4 fishing vessels were measured to be 6$^{\circ}$ to 16$^{\circ}$ and not accorded with the Korean standard values.
